Geez. Did he win or did he not win? I’m not a Santorum fan, but it’s completely bogus and absurd for them to deny him like this.

It wasn’t “a wash” when Romney “won” by 8 votes and you had Ayotte and others out there hustling that “hey, a win is a win!!”

Wait a minute—all the Mitt fans in the Liberal MSM and the RINO establishment have been trumpeting that Willard won Iowa SINCE Iowa!

Gee,reckon they are telling us who they prefer?

When uncertified results reflected an 8 vote margin for Romney, it was a “Major Victory”. Now, in the certified results reflecting Santorum actually won the Caucuses by 34 votes, GOP officials are saying that results from 8 precincts are missing and cannot be recovered. Further, they add that those missing precincts may have held an advantage for Romney.

If this is to be the official position of the Iowa GOP, I don't know who's bigger clowns, them or the media which rushed to report two weeks ago on “Romney's Big Win”. This also makes the Iowa process look foolish.

When is a loss a win? When Romney loses Iowa and the Media reports it as a victory. When is a win a tie? When Santorum wins Iowa.

These caucuses make a joke of everything, its too open to fiddling around, forms were not signed, who knows what went on, call it a draw and be done with it. This is why cacuses are daft, primaries are much easier for a paper trail.

FNC is now leading with this story.

And in calling this a tie, the RNC is now as corrupt as the DNC.

Iowa’s GOP proves again why they should not be the first primary in the nation.

What is so hard about logging the total number of ballots cast in each precinct, tallying them, checking the math, put all the ballots in a sealed envelope and report the results to a central location.The sealed envelope is held by a designated person for one month in case of recounts, or sent to a central location, and logged in.

In 2012, people are incapalble of doing this simple task correctly?

It’s bad enough anyone can show up and vote for the GOP nominee. It’s bad enough that the primary vote van be manipulated.

But now, you cannot even have faith in almost foolproof process.

Which can mean one thing.

The Iowa GOP has a better than average class of fools running it.

What was all that about nobody has won both IA and NH stuff? Now a win is a tie? Vote against the establishment corruption.

Pray for America

If Mitt had a gram of grace or class, he would call a press conference to congratulate Rick Santorum the REAL winner of Iowa!

But I may as well wait for the ocean to dry.

Santorum needs to quit and allow Gingrich to win. Santorum is just helping Romney get the nomination.Santorum is wrong in supporting this horrible tyranny called SOPA which allows government to censor and destroy the Internet.

He is no conservative.

Gives an answer to the question of whether “Perrywinkle” or “Perrysite” is the more descriptive and exculpatory epithet. Parasitic indeed. Feeding off Republicans while contributing nothing.

This is unfreakingbelievable.

So, they cannot account for EIGHT counties? This is ridiculous. They want to deny Santorum his WIN, so this is totally bogus. Honest to pete, they will do anything to keep Mitt the “top dog”. Sorry, but he is TOAST. Whether it’s in the primary or the general (coughspitgag), Romney is TOAST.

Santorum needs to claim victory. Let the Romney mafia try to deny it.

I am DONE with the GOP.

Despite Santorum’s advantage, the state Republican party views the results as a wash.


When Romney won by 8 votes it was “A win is a win” but now that Santorum has won it’s “a wash”. And you wonder why people hate the Republican establishment!

Why wasn’t it a “split decision” when Mittens was up by 8? I’m seriously getting sick of the pitiful and corrupt election process in this Country. America trotted the globe bringing Democracy to the oppressed only to show that we are the antithesis of the very system we espoused.
